Soft shadows

Author Topic: Soft shadows  (Read 86582 times)

So I've been working on modifying the shaders to add soft, blurred shadows (configurable).
I would release this, but there are several problems with doing so:

  • You cannot replace files in shaders/ from an add-on anymore.
  • If I were to release the modified GLSL file itself,
    • you'd have to replace it and re-apply your shader settings every time you start Blockland.
    • you'd have to edit the file itself and do the above to change any settings for it.

Ideas for a viable way of releasing it would be very much appreciated.
Oh well, have some screenshots.

AAAaaa

This is what I thought the update would look like originally
I hope there will be a way to release it at some point.

Does this work the GPU even harder?

I wish this was a default option
like

Minimum
Low
Medium
High
Max
Soft


I'm drooling at the 4th photo.

I like it!  I think you should make it even softer though especially because of that shot of the triumph arch.

Nice job Port.

You could try giving it to Badspot


Yeah, this should be a default environmental setting in the shader options.
Contact Baddy.

Reminds me of first shadows and shader screenshots

I'd like to see this in a video pls Port.

Wow Port, these soft shadows are looking amazing!
